Import Tips
• Use vacuum packaging documentation to prove 'other' form, avoiding fresh cheese misclassification
• PDO certification helpful but not required; generic 'Reggiano-style' still qualifies if cow's milk based
• Temperature control critical (32-38°F); improper shipping risks FDA rejection at port
